Picked it up today from PA and drove it back to IL.
2013 Premium Plus with 75k miles. Has every option that a Prestige model unit I test drove had except no vented seats and no push button start. But this one has the cold weather package with a heated steering wheel, which will come in handy more than vented seats. This will be my primary winter vehicle and driving down to FL Dec-March months.
Love the ride, even with the S-Line 21” wheels and 295 wide tires. Already have a set of OEM 18” wheels with aggressive all season Continental tires for the winters and drives to FL.
Managed 26-27mpg averaging 80mph thru the hills.
Then slowed it down to 72-75mph and squeezed out a 28 mpg via Fuelly.
I was just trying to get home ASAP so there were a few moments where I got it going 110mph.
Getting it deleted and Malone tuned this coming Tuesday. I’m sure it won’t feel like my deleted/tuned 535D does taking off from a red light but the Q7 offers so much space which I need for my trips.
I’m hoping to average mid 30s on the Highway with narrower tires and tuned on my trips to FL.
